Belgian designer Anthony Vaccarello quit Versace Monday, the Italian brand announced as speculation mounted that he was about to take over at Yves Saint Laurent. The rumour mill has been working overtime since Hedi Slimane left YSL last Friday, with many fashion insiders convinced that Vaccarello would succeed him. Donatella Versace seemed to hint that Vaccarello — who comes from an Italian family — was going onto greater things when she said that he was standing down as creative director of her Versus label.
